James Conlee
James Conlee has performed with the London Symphony Orchestra, City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, Josh Groban, Mannheim Steamroller, and the Broadway Musical – Miss Saigon. Born in Iowa and raised in the Rocky Mountains, James has studied classical piano and voice since age 6. Having produced 12 orchestral albums for other artists, he finally brings his unique voice and arrangements to light on his own recordings (official website).

As part of the Young Ambassadors, he and his team received some of the finest training in their field, and received opportunities to perform their colorful, energetic, wholesome blend of song and dance in 56 nations of the world–from local audiences in the Midwest to performances for the prime minister of India, the queen of Thailand, and the king and queen of Jordan.
